About this audiobook

In 1845 Henry David Thoreau built a small cabin by Walden Pond in Massachusetts and lived there for two years. This reading offers his account of simple living: what he ate, what he built, what he saw and what he learned from watching the seasons turn. Thoreau argues that most people work too hard for things they do not need and that time spent with nature is time well spent. Read by Gary Middleton. Under half an hour of one of America's most important books on living deliberately.
